LARGE NUMBERS OF APPLICANTS READY TO BUY...

  • paragraph

    image cannot be displayed
    Marchants have been experiencing an exceptionally high level of sales since Mid July 2013 & currently have an extensive database of applicants ready to fund a purchase. The market trend since Mid July 2013 has seen large numbers of people downsizing and those wishing to upscale, and the resulting effect can be seen by the level of sales Marchants have achieved during this time. The collage of properties shows some of our sales from Mid July 2013, whereby a majority were sale agreed having been on the market for less than two weeks.

    Marchants anticipate the demand for property is set to increase with the imminent arrival of the government's Mortgage Guarantee scheme, which will provide deposit assistance to first time buyers and those wishing to move up the property ladder, Marchants have already seen increased numbers of potential buyers ahead of its release. If you are considering selling, now could not be a better time. Prices are firming up and there is a choice of ready, willing and able purchasers, so if you are considering selling now or in the near future please contact Marchants to arrange a free valuation. Even if you are not considering selling right away, once we have visited your property we are then able to offer ongoing advice specific to your home and on general market conditions up to and including the time when you make the decision to sell.

      were always ready to deal with any difficulties
      Dear Peter, The sale of our house in Sussex is now completed and we are settling into our new temporary home here in Wiltshire. We would like to thank you and all your staff for the friendly, helpful and efficient way in which you dealt with this matter on our behalf. You were always ready to deal with any difficulties which arose and to give us wise and constructive advice on which to make our decisions. In fact the whole sale process went through very smoothly and without the usual stress connected with selling a property. Best wishes to you all, Yours sincerely, Michael.

    • Seller Testimonial

      I was impressed by the people at Marchants
      The decision to sell one's house is seldom taken lightly, and is made for a variety of reasons. The Agent chosen not only needs to be one on repute but also one whom you find compatible and whom you feel confident will limit the amount of stress which is always involved in this transaction. For my part I was impressed by the people at Marchants. Years of experience has given them the ability to know exactly how to reassure the vendor and how to be diplomatic and helpful to those seeking to but a house, understanding the requirements of both parties exactly. Their highly professional photographs gave a perfect view of my house and drew suitable people to view; they had exactly the right manner when showing people around and their attitude to me was very reassuring. Not surprisingly, in spite of the present slump in the housing market, my house was sold quite quickly to absolute satisfaction, and to a family who are more than happy that they have found exactly the house they longed for. Winfred Saunders.

    Testimonials from Buyers

    • Buyer Testimonial

      friendly, welcoming, supportive &understanding
      Dear Peter, Johanna and I are now back in London and pleased to see that our Flat is now on the Knight Frank website!. You are aware of our rather unusual circumstances which meant that we have had to contact and pester you, over a hurried period, rather more than the norm, I fear. However, the last few days have been very informative for us both and we would like to thank you and your team for such wonderful cooperation and support. At no point have we been made to feel that we have overstepped the mark, despite feeling ourselves that perhaps we have over-indulged in your kindness. Thank you also for sharing so much information regarding suppliers and contractors who could help us. This has been invaluable in shortening our earch process. Wendy, Simon, Joe and yourself have all been totally professional and at the same time, remarkably friendly, welcoming, supportive and understanding. We have a difficult decision to make but whatever the outcome, you can rest assured that we would have no hesitation in recommending Marchants to anyone we come across. With kind personal regards from us both to you all, Jonathan & Johanna Soper.
